Johns Creek cheerleaders support American Heart Association

JOHNS CREEK, Ga. – The Johns Creek High School basketball cheerleaders will host their third annual philanthropic project the week of Jan. 22 through 29.

Their goal is to raise funds for the American Heart Association’s greater Southeast affiliate by helping to support the “Make it Your Mission to Fight Heart Disease in Women” campaign.

The cheerleaders will sell “Cheer with Heart to Keep the Beat” T-shirts during both lunches and at the Tuesday home basketball games against West Forsyth.

Girls will play at 6 p.m., and the boys will face off at 7:30 p.m. The gray T-shirts will cost $12 each. For preorders and for quantity sales, the shirts will cost just $10 each. The Gwinnett Medical Center of Duluth is sponsoring the T-shirts. This year’s goal is to raise $3,000.

The Chick-fil-A cow from Alpharetta Commons will make an appearance. Everyone is encouraged to come out for a fun night of cheering on their favorite basketball team, $1 shoot-outs during halftime and rubbing elbows with the Chick-fil-A cow, all while raising money for a very worthwhile cause.
